Just a quick “what’s up” post, as I am still buried under a large amount of copywriting work. The rest of my web copy series is still jostling around in my skull, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, a bit of Tell Ten Friends news. Rob, who you likely know by now is our graphic designer, coder, and photographer, is having a busy week. His site crashed earlier this week, and as he says in a post today, it was a result of a spike in traffic from Netvibes after they discovered his great step-by-step Netvibes tutorial. It sucks when a site crashes from traffic, but there are bragging rights involved too, I suppose.

Also, earlier this week he pointed me to the new Sony Bravia ad, a great follow-up to the “bouncy balls” ad from earlier this year. These guys have got one thing figured out; that the process of making these ads is just as exciting as the ads themselves, and therefore they have a much better chance of going viral (anybody else starting to choke on that word?) getting passed around on the in-ter-nets. The first thing you ask when you see the new ad is “What about the cleanup?” Well, they’re smart enough to answer that question for you. Follow the links through Rob’s post and watch it for yourself. It’s worth two minutes of your day. -Unless you’re on dial-up

Lastly, today I was featured in a short article in the Lifestyles section of the Vancouver Province (a very large daily here in town) and although they didn’t run my web address (Aaaargh!) they do have a very large of photo of my goofy grin, and few quips from me about “why I like Fall.”

Not sure how long the link will last, but here you go.
